How To...Fishtail Plait

I have wanted to be able to do a fishtail plait for AGES. Over Easter I had some time to finally learn how to do it. I taught myself how to French plait years ago but when Look Magazine's Friday Night Hair email landed in my inbox I thought it was about time.

I tried to follow their video but didn't have much luck. I found the most complicated bit where you cross the hair over really hard to see. This coupled with the fact that I was trying to do it at the back of my head was giving me neck ache. If you have a friend to practice on or some hair extensions then it really would be much easier.

I looked around online for a better How To video that I could follow. This one makes it as easy as it can be. After watching it I finally managed my first fishtail plait! Are you any good at them? Let me know how you get on. It really is easier than French Plaits.

These instructions are also fairly easy to follow as a reminder after you have watched the video.

About Me

Hi I'm Claire. I'm not a model, not a stylist and not a fashion authority. I'm a Radio Lady and I do love clothes, fashion and beauty. I'm kind of a hunter-gatherer of items, never letting the fact that I can't find something or it being 'sold out' stop me! This is the place I put my finds, inspiration and news. I possibly only have a little bit of style ( about this much *inch*) but at if you like what you find then that's what makes this worth while. This is where I get to share things with you. You can find me tweeting @ClaireBurgess
